A day in the life of a bakery person.
Hello all. Sorry I didn't post yesterday, I really didn't feel like it. It just wasn't that good of day yesterday. Well, by reading the subject of my post, I'm sure you're all curious as to what it is I do. So, I shall tell thee.

Sunday: Iwalked into the department, to a pretty big mess. It turns out that the person who worked before me didn't quite do his job. So, I had to clean up his mess before I could even start on my stuff. And then, I had to do his job on top of mine. Sooo, the first thing I did was something I always do when I come in, and that is package the cookies. You guys already know how that goes....take cookies from sheet, put in package, create label, repeat about 50-60 times. After that, it's off to do the stupid garlic bread. This process is so tedious! first you take the little white thing off the package, you know the thing that seals it. then you take the bread out of the package. Then you cut it in half, put the butter stuff on both sides, put the bread back together, then put in new oven-ready package. Then create label. Repeat 40 times. Now, during this time I was asked to write on three cakes, which I did pretty well at, considering it was my first realy try.

Now then, by that time it's around 8 o'clock, which means its time to take the doughnuts out of the case and package them. They all going into packages of tweleve. Usually I make about 10 of those 12 packs. and of course, you have to make a label for those too. Then you clean the thing they are in, spray the doors, and then place those packs back in there. There is this thing where the fresh bagels and bread go. You take those out, give them special labels, and clean the thing. Then you stick those back in. While all this is going on, the things the doughnuts where on are setting in dishwater. By now, it's about 8:45, and you have 15 mins to finish the dishes, sweep and mop the floor, and do the temperatures. ( which you do everyone other hour).

Let's just say, I didn't finish everything last night, and I didn't leave till 9:30. I was sort of yelled at today for staying late. But I'm sorry, I'm not someone who goes and leaves a job unfinished.

*sighs* at least tonight was better. Since I made so much garlic bread last night, I didn't have to make any today, and I only had one cart of cookies to make. So I ran the bread (which means I make sure all the breads our company makes is in stock). I took two cake orders today, and wrote on two more cakes. I think I'm getting better at it. Then I did all the other stuff I mentioned above (do the doughnuts, sweep, do the dishes, etc.) I decided to leave a little early to make up for last night.

I then went to Wal-Mart to get some water for Duo (my fish) since I need to clean his bowl. I noticed as I was walking by that they had oreo's on sale, so I promptly bought two packages. When I got home with them, I was given a lecture on how we don't have very much money, and that we shouldn't be wasting it on stuff we don't need. "A dollar here and there adds up! It's something your mom doesn't understand!" *sighs* appreantly I can't do anything right.
